English term or phrase: those ones with the mothers
"Terrible.They all get married young,they're Catholics, and the wives never die-they're too busy having babies".

"Oh, they had somebody lined up for me, but I saw right away he would never pan out. He was one of those ones with the mothers".

Para que entiendan un poco mas el contexto, la mujer que habla esta buscando pareja.

La verdad es que no se si esa frase es una expresion idiomatica o quizas lenguaje coloquial.No se lo que quiere decir con ella.

aquellos con la madre muy presente en su vida


Explanation:
Quiere decir que se trata de un hombre que no se ha despegado de su madre, con madre dominante quizá, y que siempre busca la aprobación de su madre en todo referente a su vida. Una posible esposa siempre estaría en segundo lugar detrás de la madre.
